. . . Why do you wish to inflict this injustice upon us ? So that you may fill our places with strangers, members of another family, because they happen to be your relations. What a good reputation your ambition will lay upon our brother and ruler, should God see fit to remove him ! The position which you have gained for yourself in the world scarcely gives you sufficient authority to exclude from the succession to the crown the lawful daughters of Henry, our father, and the sisters of the King... Edward, in order to make way for the daughter of the Duke of Suffolk, whose only merit lies in the fact that he had the honour of marrying one of our aunts. ^ What fame will you acquire among foreign nations when it is known that your ambition has violated the most sacred laws in the kingdom, and broken the most legitimate claims of the succession to the crown ? We console ourselves, however, with the hope that God, who always punishes the wrong- doer, and protects the innocent, will restore the health of the King, our brother, and give him time to recog- nize the trick which has been played upon him and the bad advice he has received.
